For research in linguistic anthropology, the successful execution of research projects is a challenging but essential task. Balancing research design with data collection methods, this textbook guides readers through the key issues and principles of the core research methods in linguistic anthropology.

Designed for students conducting research projects for the first time, or for researchers in need of a primer on key methodologies, this book provides clear introductions to key concepts, accessible discussions of theory and practice through illustrative examples, and critical engagement with current debates. Topics covered include creating and refining research questions, planning research projects, ethical considerations for research, quantitative and qualitative data collection methods, data processing, data analysis, and how to write a successful grant application. Each chapter is illustrated by cases studies which showcase methods in practice, and are supported by activities and exercises, discussion questions, and further reading lists. Research Methods in Linguistic Anthropology is an essential resource for both experienced and novice linguistic anthropologists and is a valuable textbook for research methods courses.

Reviews for Research Methods in Linguistic Anthropology

The book provides an invaluable sourcebook/guide, with innovative approaches for researchers wanting to document language, culture, and human sociality as phenomena emergent through interactive practices. State-of-the-art chapters creatively investigate how to approach, conduct, and document fieldwork in linguistic anthropology with flexibility, ethics, and contingency always in the forefront. * Marjorie Harness Goodwin, Distinguished Research Professor of Anthropology, UCLA, USA * When I ventured to Madagascar in 1969, I took along a portable tape recorder, 35mm camera, and revered monograph as inspiration and proceeded to improvise fieldwork. I so wish I could reverse history to benefit from the practical, ethical, and theory-relevant apprenticeship offered in Perrino and Pritzker's extraordinary Research Methods in Linguistic Anthropology. * Elinor Ochs, Distinguished Research Professor of Anthropology, University of California, Los Angeles, USA *
